Default Spam Registrations Question

I am perplexed and do not know what to do.

My site is continually being bombarded by spam registrations.

I run a clean and family friendly site www.comicbrew.com and have had to remove... sometimes hours after it's posted, inappropriate posts.

How can I prevent this?

Sometimes a spam registered account posts to a thread. Inappropriately and annoyingly.
I would rather drop my registered user numbers down to prevent this hassle.

I have to clean up the users database daily.

multiple registrations come from @mail.ru

if there was a way to restrict anyone from @mail.ru it would be a godsend. I just do not know how to do this. And without turning off potential, real live, interested members.

They all have similar IP's but never the same.

87.99.79.94
87.99.79.93
87.99.79.92
87.99.79.91
ETC

Some with the @mail.ru have random IP's
Similar emails, but never the same.
It's driving me nuts.

ANY help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
